Adult with PDD Seeking to Adopt

Hi, I find lots of information on the web about advice for parents who have kids with autism, Asperger's, or PDD. Unfortunately, I do not see very much that is useful for adults with the above conditions. I was just diagnosed with PDD-NOS within the last year. It explains alot of the things that I found unexplainable when I was a kid. I am seriously considering adopting a child from the State foster care system. I have already gone through the classes and am beginning the homestudy process. Will the fact that I have PDD prohibit me from adopting a child? Are there resources available to adults on the autism spectrum that will help in the adoption process or with parenting generally? Roger
